Dicalcium Malate
A concentrated calcium supplement for individuals most at risk for calcium inadequacy
DiCalcium Malate contains DimaCal®, which is optimally absorbed and is more concentrated than other calcium forms, providing more calcium per capsule.
Research indicates that a large proportion of the U.S. adult population does not consume the 1,300 mg of calcium the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommends for daily dietary intake. Individuals who are at the most risk for calcium inadequacy because of decreased intake, disordered metabolism, decreased absorption, increased loss, or increased need include peri- and postmenopausal women, vegans, individuals who take certain prescription and OTC medications, and those with a vitamin D deficiency (because vitamin D is necessary for calcium absorption). Thorne's DiCalcium Malate (DimaCal®), with 250 mg per capsule, is more concentrated than other forms of calcium (such as calcium carbonate), and is absorbed significantly better than calcium carbonate.
DiCalcium Malate consists of one molecule of malic acid that is bound to two molecules of calcium, which results in a compound that is 29-percent calcium – compared to calcium citrate, which is 19-percent calcium – thus resulting in more elemental calcium per capsule.
Those individuals most at risk for inadequate calcium intake are:
- Peri-menopausal and post-menopausal women
- Women with irregular menstruation, particularly women in which this is due to prolonged athletic activity or strenuous military service
- Individuals on a dairy-free diet
- Vegetarians and vegans, because their diets are higher in plant-derived phytates and oxalates that inhibit calcium absorption
- Pregnant women, particularly women with a history of gestational hypertension
- Individuals on prescription and OTC medications such as antacids (H2 blockers or proton pump inhibitors) that can inhibit absorption, or glucocorticoids such as prednisone that can increase calcium loss
- Individuals with a vitamin D deficiency – because vitamin D is necessary for calcium absorption
Take 1 capsule two times daily or as recommended by your health professional.

Let customers speak for us
from 662 reviewsI think it’s the best fish oil on the market today.
This product is a lifesaver. I was at work and had an episode of vertigo. I placed 6 drops of Pro Dizziness Vertigo under my tongue. Within minutes my dizziness stopped and has never returned. This was the first time that I had used this product. Impressive.
Good price and secure delivery
As soon as I feel myself having horrible mood swings and bloating I take these and it immediately works. Even my husband noticed it right away he always tells me to take my drops as soon as my mood swings kick in. I would definitely recommend this!!
I think it could be more effective if it incorporated a few more ingredients. . Too expensive considering how few ingredients.
I love this cod liver oil! It is so easy to take, the capsules are fairly small and it goes down easily.
Easy to order from and received my supplement quickly! Would order from again.
One of the best
My dog seems to feel better
Having it reviewed for its purity.
Liver Cleanse
this works, been using it for years, the hurt goes away quickly, not overnight but pretty quick
LOVE THIS PRODUCT FOR SHAMPOOING, SMELL, & CONDITIONING IN ONE STEP! NOTE MY HAIR IS TO MY WAIST & DREADS IN THE WIND OR WATER?
We absolutely cannot do with this oil during allergy season! Fewer sinus infections, stuffy noses, etc are a thing of the past.
